Commercial Description:
Brewed with Pumpkin and Spices(Cinnamon,Nutmeg,Cardamom,Cloves). This 8.0% ABV pumpkin ale is heartier, spicier, and more caramelly and pumpkiny than its faint brethren! Perfect finisher on a cool autumn night, or match it up with a slice of pumpkin pie and fresh whipped cream. If you don't agree this is the mother of all pumpkin ales, then you just don't like mothers!

Bottle. Pours deep red orange with a beige head. Pumpkin pie aroma, with primarily nutmeg and clove. The flavor is a bit boozy and has a spice profile more along the the lines of cardamom and clove. Nice.

Draft. Aroma was mainly spiced, with mostly cinnamon and touches of nutmeg. Somewhat caramelized and any pumpkin was masked by the spice. However, the flavor was a really nice sweet and rounded pure pumpkin flavor, spices were restrained. Suddenly I really like a pumpkin beer!

Great color and pour. Much better pumpkin taste then a lot of the others I have had. It is a mouthful of Holiday flavors. A little stronger then most beers of this style, it really comes across as a smooth taste of spices.

Great pumpkin flavor, not overpowering with spice. Alcohol is hidden well and it seems nicely balanced w/ hops.

So many fantastic pumpkin brews out this year, im glad i can finally get Weyerbacher in my area. Pours a bright cloudy orange colour with a large creamy white head. Taste is very pleasent, rich pumpkin flavors. Various spices- cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger. Aroma is pleasent also, nutmeg, graham crackers and pumpkin and maybe some pomegranate? Overall tastey brew.

12oz bottle. Pours an awesome clear burgundy color with a small tan head. Aroma is cardammon, nutmeg, anise, brown sugar and of course pumpkin also some light alcohol phenols in the nose. Light carbonation but a very full palate. Nutmeg opens up with the clove and cardamom following close behind finish is heavy on brown sugar and cinamon with a lingering pumpkin pie taste. Very faint alcohol but well hidden considering. Very very good pumpkin ale, probably the best I’ve had.

A nice dark amber color. Pumpkins, spice, nutmeg, alcohol, thick malts and even a little hop bite.

bottle thanks to daknole. great amber pour with no head just a ring of froth. mixes spices of cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar on the nose. quite smooth on the palate with a huge cinnamon/nutmeg flavor that tastes like thanksgiving.
